Song of the Circus

Rating:
Summary: Poetic, whimsical, brilliant !
Review: This book about a "terrible day at the circus" is one of the wittiest, most intelligent children's books I've ever read. The rhythm of the lines is beautiful; the rhymes are natural; the story is intriguing. Our now 3-year-old has been enjoying it for about 9 months now, and still asks for it constantly... esp. after a trip to the circus!

Review: This is a terrific children's book! The writing is both whimsical (the tiger "doesn't like the food at the circus" so he chases the two circus kids) and rhythmic. The illustrations complement the author's sense of humor. My son thought a book about a tiger chase was "awesome, mom!" We read a lot of books around our house and this is by far one of my favorites.
